We are waiting for rawwt to submit a 3.0 compatible version for VRTweaks. Hopefully soon (I'm waiting for it as well...it also had a nice semi-transparent pull-down).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] MilesTEG1:
Hello :)

Great :)

Maybe it would be a good idea to put it on the first page :)

Thanks foir your response :)

What I mean when I said revert to 3.0, is that I flashed again VR 3.0 to get rid of the mod VR30_APM_CRT_JKaysCircle.zip i installed.

I have installed everything :)

ANd all works like a charm :) for now :D

I use VRTweak to prevent notification when battery fully charged and to disable separate icon for vvbration.

Before revert to 3.0 with wipe everything, I tryed to install tweak for gtalk, but only first one get installed, the second won't works apparently.

I will try again in the day.

I don't understand what the "Disable noise cancelling in call" fixed...

and the next with incrementing ringer...

Is the Home button lagy ? I don't see that...

Thanks ^^

I'm not a fan of the thread title maybe "perfecting perfection."

It just seems a little prideful still though no?

You have wakelocks keeping your phone awake. Download betterybatterystats from xda and check for partial wakelocks within that app. Then you will see what is keeping your phone awake.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] IakobosJ:
I would just like to give a huge thanks to EVERYONE involved with this ROM.

I used this ROM when I first got this phone but then switched to MIUI and thought I would never switch back to 'stock' again, but I gave this a go and.... wow..

I have had 0 problems, not a single one.

I loaded the ROM, noticed root permissions were missing, noticed Superuser was missing. I downloaded it from the market, ran the program and let it update and everything was fine.

I don't know why but I always seem to have better battery with CF-Root so I flashed the latest insecure version of KI3 and again WOW.

The battery life on this ROM is as good as it was on MIUI (Which was pretty amazing) It lasts all day and longer :P

The 'CPU noise' I could hear with the headphones 'appears' to be gone, I will confirm this later.

But thank you so much for all of your time and effort, this is an amazing ROM.

Once I have my money sorted out this month I will be donating to your good self :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gervasius:
because in some cases (lot of cases) other party hear

echo when talking with you IF your SGSII is in silicone

case. When you turn off noise cancelling (what is not

possible by default) - everything is fine. :-)

Problem with camera fc was mentioned, i have fc when go to settings and try to change camera resolution every time :confused: so copy/paste from old 2.5 is the only way ? Whether has been found other solution ?

@michal_alton

Try a different modem, one of the observation is your wifi is constantly on and the modem could be draining more battery :)..
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] perissatto:
This is the best ROM i have ever seen.... Great job dude.....

i update the modem with KI3 and its working great.

Just a question....

Someone tried to use a wii controller or PS3 controller to work in this ROM ?

THanks all...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mynamesteve:
Unfortunately the bluetooth stack is different so no you cannot :mad:

I believe its possible with CM7 but i havent tried myself
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] michal_alton:
Thanks for all suggestions. I did have wifi teethering on all the time, didn't notice it was still on. Today is off as well as sync.

I have also installed betterybatterystats and will see what is draining battery.

ATM I have 84% left after 2:36h, with wifi on for 1:5h (not teethering though) and some light use ie. Opera, android market or voice call.

Will report back later on when I drain the battery.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
hey steve buddy how are you? wonder if you can help me with a question if thats ok.

when i go into battery usage it says my display has been on for the last say 2 and half hours but my screen is off and on during that...(i know this probably sounds the most stupid question) is there an option that keeps the display awake even if handset is sleeping?

thanks

Hey guys, flashed new ROM few days ago - done full wipe before, cleared the cache. Now I've got the problem with widgets - when I try to add a Widget I'm not getting the full list of them, plenty are missing on the list, also stock widgets ... Any idea?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mynamesteve:
Hi mate,

if it says 2 and a half hours it will be from when the phone was last at 100% i believe.

I get on average 3 to 3 and a half hours screen on time per charge.

Is far as i am aware the phone cant sleep with the screen on.

If you leave your screen on constantly it will murder your battery in a few hours btw.

Did you flash the full version or the lite version?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kpmkat:
I've flashed the full one...
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
have you moved apps to sd?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kpmkat:
Nope .. :/
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mynamesteve:
So what widgets are you missing exacty?

Your not expecting to see widgets from your previous rom after you did a full wipe right?

You could reinstall the rom over the top of your current setup with no wipe to see if that adds them back.

Not seen this before :confused:
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
what is the file size of the zip you flashed?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Dave_G7:
Hi, 1st thx to pulser and other people for this amazing rom! Im still using 2.x cause 3 is beta... having a minor bug with exchange binded mail, i can recive and read but not reply... when i hit reply i can tip on the key (using a htc ime from jonas.. working without any problem on any situation...)

But nothing hapens, its liked blocked, freezed, have to fc via task manager...

Any idea? When will be the 3.0 rc or stable version? Thx dave
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mynamesteve:
No problem :)

The battery info screen seems to confuse a lot of people, i have to laugh at the millions of posts about Android OS usage. Sure a few phones with certain versions of android have this problem but most of the time its just high because the person hasnt been using the phone.

99% of the time the battery raping is being cause by wakelocks.

Oh Sir! if only you would have read a few pages first.

PROTIP: It isnt beta anymore.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gtizon:
Hey steve! Maybe you have an answer to my prob about vrtweaks. Post is maybe couple of pages ago. Nothing is showing when i enter the app. Both installed and not installed are not visible. Reinstalling hasnt worked. Any ideas? Also this happened after i rebooted my phone.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Auridran:
Android OS will almost always be at the top if you only use your phone to check a few emails, send a few texts and such per day. However, having 75%+ Android OS with that kind of usage is abnormal.

What people with high Android OS usage should look at is the amount of CPU time it uses. If it uses any more than 2-4 minutes per hour, you have issues. The drain isn't anywhere near as severe as pre-2.3.4 with the drain bug, but it still does cause drain when it uses more than that.

Before I removed my last two or so pieces of Samsung crapware and the Email client, I was at over 15 minutes of CPU time per hour from Android OS. Now I'm always under 4.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ole12:
make sure WIFI or 3G is on, and hit refresh.

Allow it if you are using droidwall.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] :
my highest is always the display..that bloody sucks the life out of my battery. and we talking like 50 up to 60% display all the time. i know thats normal because of the screen but is there anyway to bring that down at all...and yes i do have brightness settings to its lowest
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kpmkat:
I'm missing for example - location widget that shows what's nearby, adding another programs with active widgets causes some other widgets to dissapear from list as these new are coming on the list. Looks like there is a restricted numer of widgets that are shown in the widget list... what a mess, never seen that before. Flashed once more without wipe - nothing changed. Wondering if there is any program installed that can cause this, one of 160 Programs installed LOL.

Are you running lite version?

Also have you got superuser installed?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gtizon:
Did that too. Still.not workin. Even if i hit mount rw. I do not have droidwall.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gtizon:
Yes running the lite version. Yup have superuser updated binary.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mynamesteve:
Sounds like the lite version is called something different pulser will need to add the name his end so it shows up.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gtizon:
I see! Thanks! PULSER hopefully helps me with this issue. Btw lite version battlife is great complimented by undervolting!

I tryed to call my girlfriend, and I didn't hear any echo, neither she did.

I am on VR3.0 so i have 3.0 camera, is there modified 3.0 camera apk ?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
This is the only problem with people creating their own versions and putting them up, Pulsar can't be expected to update VRTweaks with various build names/numbers. Try installing the official full VR3 and then remove the bloatware yourself, takes all of a few minutes, then you won't encounter these issues.

Out of interest though what does your build number say in settings - about phone? It should be VillainROM 3.0. Hopefully Pulsar will correct me if I'm wrong but VRTweaks checks the build number and then displays the relevant tweaks.

---------- Post added at 01:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:46 PM ----------

Did you install the camera tweak in VRTweaks? This is what he meant by modified camera apk. There is a known issue with the tweak so its recommended to keep the original.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yes, vrtweaks is locked to your build display version.

If you stick to the standard

VillainROM 3.0 LITE

I will add it later today. It must read that exactly though, including capitalisation...

It has to be like this though, as otherwise people will try to use the app with other ROMs, and get boot loops and things :p
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Market has a couple of good call recording apps I think :)

Here is the only 'call recording' app that really works in SGS2:

In Android Market, first search for 'Dsoft'

Click on search again, to find all apps by Dsoft

Install CallRecorder by Dsoft (but NOT the S version)

Click on the green Android to switch it on and off on demand.

I am using it all the time, works as a charm.

Success!

any recommended kernels other than ninpos?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Nebucatnetzer:
Didn't tried 2.1.3 with VR 3.0 but 2.0.5 worked totally fine with the same profile and undervolted.

With kernels it's like with the modems try them and use the one you like the most.

If you want to check if the kernel causes the reboot then I would recommend CF-root it's the most stock like.

By the way do you have a restart from the samsung logo or does it start from the bootanimation?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Lennyuk:
VR3.0 comes with Ninphetamine 2.0.5, why did you upgrade?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] CamoGeko:
Yep...why?

Ninph 2.0.5 even has better battery life, which had been said in this thread many times and I even posted screenshots of how good it actually is.

Ive installed the tweak for the camera (during calls, under 15% of battery..) and received FC while changing the resolution in the camera settings.

Ive restored the original camera.apk, restarted the device and still receive the same FC during resolution changes.

Any ideas? Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mynamesteve:
You set your permissions correctly?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] dyallo:
What's the reason for having Ninphetamine 2.0.5 in VR3.0?

How come it's not Ninpetamine 2.1.3?

How come it's not CF-Root?

How come there's a kernel at all?

It says Villain Rom 3.0 ~Universal- Theme

Given your suggestion, if i flash the full version do I have to do a full wipe?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gtizon:
Weird, thats not what my build says. Dont know why it doesnt show Villan ROM 3.0 Lite
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] mynamesteve:
What says Villain Rom 3.0 ~Universal- Theme? is this in build info?

no a full wipe shouldn't be necessary. but if you get problems after boot do a full wipe then reinstall

It shows whatever the original uploader called it which im guessing was Villain Rom 3.0 ~Universal- Theme? not VillainROM 3.0 LITE

you can change the info in your version in your build prop but imma make you search for that ;)

As said above KI3 is the latest modem, but any modem should be compatible (but that doesn't mean that you'll get a good signal on any).

I think the main modems that are recommended are KG6/KH3/KI1/KI3, going from oldest to newest, just try those and see which one works best for you.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] netcitizen:
It starts from the samsung logo.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] netcitizen:
Well, 2.0.5 sounds a pretty old version and so went with the latest version.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
It is an old version and is the recommended one as both Pulsar and Hacre confirmed the newer sources have battery regressions and advised going back to what is known to work well, hence 2.0.5. Newer isn't always better :eek: ;)

---------- Post added at 07:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:44 PM ----------

Good to know that fixed it. I wonder if the OP of the custom lite version has realised VRTweaks doesn't work. Anyway best to stay with what's provided and do the removal of bloatware yourself, that way you learn as you go along, it's a win win :D
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kahvitahra:

For future info, always ask before you are going to use someones work ( no matter what it is ). I don't mind, but someone might. It's the rule in here. :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gtizon:
Actually I dont think its the LITE Version. I flashed using that one and VRtweaks worked. The culprit may be the Universal TW Themes by Rixta. I tried it twice and twice it changed my build even.after a fresh flash. So FYI to the others.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] AvRS:
Oh ok, you didn't mention you'd flashed that theme first time round but anything that changes the build number will have this effect. Maybe mention it to Rixsta and ask him to remove the build prop changes if thats the theme you're after.
